Handicare Stairlifts are supplied with footrest can be manually folded up to increase available space leaving the hallway and on your staircase as clear as possible for other users.

Lifted and lowered by hand, our manual footrests are fitted with an easy fold mechanism that minimises the strength required to fold the footrest up or down.

The powered footrest option removes the need for you to bend down to fold or unfold the footrest. There are two ways in which the footrest can be activated: some stairlift systems offer a footrest that folds automatically when the seat is folded and unfolded, others one that is operated independently of the seat by a switch in the seat arm so you can raise and lower the footrest whilst seated.

Some of Handicare’s stairlifts offer a choice of either method.
